State cooperation
• Harmonization of actions among states
• Aim is to reach mutually beneficial outcomes
• Cooperation through institutions
• Overall aim is to manage anarchy by reducing uncertainty by generating information
Anarchy
• Key assumption in neoliberalism as well
• Yet, it can be managed by institutions rather than only by balance of power
• This constitutes a key difference from neorealism
• Both neorealism and neoliberalism- see anarchy as given
2nd versus 3rd image
• 2nd image-state level theories- all theories that look at domestic level attributes
• 3rd image- systemic factors- neorealism and neoliberalism are both systemic
• Their main unit of analysis are different
Functionalism
• 1943 David Mitrany-A working peace system
• Territory and authority linkage is cause of war
• Aim is to divorce these two and create a linkage between function and authority
International cooperation
• Functionalism-theory of international cooperation
• Aim is to prevent another European war
• Neofunctionalism-Haas- 1957, theory to understand precisely the European integration process
• Both explain integration- could be seen as an alternative to power politics
